PONCE DE LEON: On April 14, 2024, deputies with the Holmes County Sheriff’s Office conducted a traffic stop on a vehicle at the intersection of Hwy 90 and Hwy 81. Contact was made with the driver, Heather Rushing of Ponce de Leon, as well as multiple passengers.
During the interaction, K9 Buck with the Bonifay Police Department conducted a free air sniff around the vehicle and gave a positive alert for the presence of illegal narcotics. Ms. Rushing was asked to exit the vehicle and asked if she had anything illegal on her person. She removed a baggie of containing methamphetamine from her pocket and was taken into custody. The passengers of the vehicle were released from the scene.
Heather Rushing was transported to the Holmes County Jail and charged with possession of methamphetamine.
We would like to thank the Bonifay Police Department for their assistance in this case. We serve our communities best when we work together!
